Don Preston: "Jesus was not raised in an immortal, incorruptible human body"

In the Bunch-V- Preston Written Debate, Don Preston writes "But, Paul's point is not that Christians are resurrected biologically just like Jesus, and Larry will even be forced to agree with this! Here is why. Larry argues that the resurrection of 1 Corinthians 15 is of transformed, immortalized human corpses. Yet, he then argues that Christ was raised out of the tomb. Here is the point: CHRIST WAS RAISED UNCHANGED FROM THE TOMB! Jesus was not raised in an immortal, incorruptible human body! So, Larry, are you going to maintain your argument that Christians must be raised exactly like Jesus- UNCHANGED? Now, there was a change in Jesus at his resurrection. However, IT WAS NOT A BIOLOGICAL ALTERATION, it was a COVENANTAL TRANSFORMATION. See 1 Peter 3:18. Like Paul, Peter is not speaking of any change in biological substance, but a change in covenantal stance, from flesh to spirit."
